FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a connecting lock for exhibit apparatus, particularly to a high-strength connecting lock for exhibit framework assembly.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

To get the required shape, realize fine lock, prevent the downward movement of the eccentric wheel and collapsed eccentricity, a plurality of windows and bosses are arranged at the rear in the prior lock shell, for instance, to provide holes to dodge of the bent portion of the reed end, to provide side holes to dodge of the eccentric cam and provide certain protection against collapsed eccentricity, to provide bosses to avoid the downward movement of the reed and collapsed eccentricity, and to provide two technology holes as needed for the technology. As a plurality of holes are made in the lock shell, the strength of the lock shell is greatly reduced, which leads to the cracking of the lock shell when the locking torque is too large and reduces the effectiveness in preventing the collapsed eccentricity, hence the defect of low reliability exists in the prior lock shell.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a connecting lock for exhibit framework assembly with high reliability and allowing the manufacturing process to be simplified.

The following technical proposal is used in the present invention:

A connecting lock for exhibit framework assembly which connects the parts of the exhibit apparatus, consisting of a lock shell, a locking plate and an eccentric wheel, the eccentric wheel is composed of a wheel axle, an eccentric disc and a wheel cap; the eccentric disc is mounted on the wheel axle and provided with the wheel cap; the locking plate is provided in the lock shell; at least two alculas are provided at the head of the locking plate; mating hole of the eccentric disc matching the eccentric disc are made at the rear of the locking plate; the lock shell is a closed shell with cavity where a alcula window is provided at the front end; the alcula protrude out of the closed shell via the alcula window from inside the closed shell; a wheel axle hole for matching the wheel axle in rotation is mounted at the rear of the closed shell, a groove for mounting the eccentric wheel is mounted on the wall of the closed shell opposite to the wheel axle hole, and an open window for mounting and disassembly the built-in assembly is provided at the rear of the closed shell for disassembly and installing the locking plate and the eccentric wheel.

Also, for the connecting lock for exhibit framework assembly in the present invention, a boss can be provided in the internal wall area of the closed shell between the front of the closed shell and the center line of the wheel axle hole perpendicular to the moving direction of the locking plate, and extends to form a reinforcing block; the reinforcing block extends in the tangent direction of the wheel axle hole; the rear of the locking plate shows downward bend shape; the rear end of the locking plate is a bevel; a long hole for the access by the rear of the locking plate is provided on the wall of the closed shell below the rear of the locking plate when the connecting lock for exhibit framework assembly is unlocked; the locking plate platen is arranged between the eccentric disc and the wheel cap; and a reed is provided on the locking plate.

Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

-   -   (1) The present invention has removed the boss at the rear in         the prior art, and provided an “open type” window for mounting         and disassembly the built-in assembly to avoid the necessity for         setting a plurality of technology holes in the lock shell. The         shell in the present invention becomes a relatively closed         “closed type” shell with only a few functional holes and removal         holes, and the reduction of holes in the shell improves the         strength, thereby increasing the reliability of the present         invention. In the present invention, for the manufacture of the         construction, knockout cores are provided only at the two ends,         thus reducing the number of knockout cores, simplifying the die         and increasing the qualified rate of the products.     -   (2) The reinforcing block, particularly the reinforcing block         formed from the extension in the tangent direction of the wheel         axle hole, improves the bearing condition of the boss,         eliminates the defect that the corner of the boss is sensitive         to damage under stress in the prior art, increases the strength         of the boss and further improves the reliability of the present         invention.     -   (3) While butting against the locking plate so that the         eccentric disc is located in the mating hole of the eccentric         disc of the locking plate, providing a proper match, the locking         plate platen with a diameter larger than that of the wheel cap         is pressed by the inner wall of the closed shell (the inner         walls of the closed shell on the two sides of the groove for         mounting the eccentric wheel) so that the locking plate can only         move in the shell for effective locking and unlocking, and the         reliability of the locking state of the connecting lock is         maintained.
